Flagstaff Dangerous Drugs Lawyer

For the most part, the over-the-counter and prescription medications that millions of Americans depend on each day can be trusted to work more or less as advertised with minimal harmful side effects. Unfortunately, numerous exceptions to this trend still pop up every year, and manufacturers are often unable — or sometimes even unwilling — to issue recalls before the product they made and sold causes serious harm to hundreds, if not thousands, of people.

Taking legal action against a pharmaceutical company that sold you a defective or dangerous medication is never a simple process, and it is not something you should try doing without the support of an experienced Flagstaff dangerous drugs lawyer. Fortunately, the help you need is available from Phillips Law Group, where our personal injury attorneys have decades of experience fighting for the rights of people like you and taking claims all the way to civil court if necessary to get injured people the compensation they deserve.

Possible Grounds for a Dangerous Drugs Lawsuit

Rather than the legal theory of “negligence,” which is what most personal injury lawsuits are built around, dangerous drug litigation generally revolves around the legal theory of “strict liability” established under product liability law. In practice, this means that instead of proving a drug company did something specifically reckless or careless which led to a consumer getting hurt or sick, the injured or ill consumer just has to prove that all the following conditions are met in order to have valid grounds for a lawsuit:

• The product made by the company — in this scenario, a medication or medical product — was “defective” in one of three specific ways
• The “defect” in the product existed when the product left its maker’s direct control
• The product’s condition did not meaningfully change between when it left its maker’s direct control and when the impacted consumer obtained it
• The consumer suffered physical harm seriously enough to need professional medical care as a direct result of the defect
• The consumer was using the product for its intended purpose or otherwise in a reasonable way when they were hurt

A Flagstaff dangerous drugs attorney can help take legal action over defects in design which make a drug unreasonably dangerous for everyone, defects in manufacturing which lead to a specific batch of medication being contaminated, or defects in “marketing” which lead to the consumer not being properly warned about a drug’s side effects and/or contraindications.

Recovering for All Available Damages

Both economic and non-economic damages may be “compensable” through a successful defective drug claim. On the economic side of things, this can include immediately obvious expenses like medical bills and lost work income, as well as expected long-term harm like costs of future medical treatment, lost working capacity, and costs associated with permanent disability for things like home/vehicle modifications.

Non-economic damages, on the other hand, typically revolve around physical “pain and suffering” but can also include emotional anguish, psychological trauma, and lost enjoyment/quality of life. Once again, a dangerous drugs lawyer in Flagstaff can offer guidance about what damages may be recoverable in a specific situation and what course of action would be most effective for seeking civil restitution.

My husband and I have been clients of Phillips Law Group since 1999. Over that time, we have probably used their services 15 to 20 times for various reasons and have referred at least 100 people to them. What’s really great about Phillips & Associates is that, in addition to providing excellent service, if they don't believe they are absolutely the best firm for your case, they won’t take it. Instead, they refer you to another firm that can better handle your needs. This approach is unlike many other firms that might take a shot at handling your case, often learning on the job at the client's expense. Knowing that they would rather decline a case than risk giving the...

Took care of my case and told me there was a possibility of a higher settlement and I kinda forgot that they said that and was contacted by them more than a year later and was told there was another check at their office for me. Very down to earth people and will fight for you as hard as they can. Highly recommend their office to work with!

My name is Josh Porter. If you want to work with people that will move mountains for you in your case then hire Phillips Law Group. At the beginning of my lawsuit my kidney transplant of 30 years failed and the next four years became the hardest time of my life. There were days where we didn't know if I would make it. Phillips Law Group became my HOPE during this time in my life. In life I believe God will bring people across our path's that are super rare and a DIAMOND. At the beginning of my case I met my paralegal named Hannah Rios. Hannah is an amazing, caring, merciful, graceful, warrior, grab the bull by its horn...

I felt they were more my friends than my personal injury lawyer and that isn't something you're taught it's something you have inside. If I ever needed a lawyer again Phillips Law Group Injury Lawyers would be my only choice. I can't recommend them enough. They are professional on every level and compassionate throughout. Thank you for everything.

When in pain because of an accident all you want to do is focus on getting better and that is what did thanks to this firm. My family and I were set up with a Dr and Chiro right away. The treatment we received was great. I am extremely thankful for all the help we received and the outcome on the cases. Thanks to everyone involved on my case. A special thanks the intake specialist Rosalba who was very kind on the phone when I first called. I highly recommend this firm to anyone, they treat you like family.

I am so thankful for Ruthann and Maria. They both were amazing throughout the process. When Maria took over my case, I felt like I was being treated with empathy about my pain and experiences while treating. She also made sure to answer my questions. Maria always responded to my communication attempts and answered questions I had as they came up. She helped me with things I needed in regards to my case and helped ease the anxiety as bills piled up and my injuries were still being treated. I was able to contact her as I was treating and she helped find providers closer to my home to make it more accommodating for me. This helped me juggle work...

Latosha E.

What can I say about Phillips Law group. I was involved in a major car accident and sustained injuries. I looked up for Law Firms in Arizona and stumbled across Phillips Law Group. I decided to give them a call about my accident, and they were very respectful and took in my case immediately. They assigned me Tim LeDuc to represent me. From the beginning, he was very responsive and made sure to give me the proper care I deserved from this accident. Him and his team fought tooth and nail to give me the best settlement I deserved. I am so thankful, and I highly recommend Phillips Law Group to represent anyone who has been in any accident and...

My case closed yesterday and I RAN to make this review because of how exceptional my experience has been with Phillips Law Group! I received the best settlement I could've hoped for and am extremely happy with the outcome; but I especially wanted to shout out and give praise to Julianna, the Litigation Paralegal on my case. From the moment Julianna was assigned to my case almost two years ago, until the completion of the settlement process yesterday, Julianna's commitment to exceptional customer service, clear communication, and unwavering support truly stood out. I had so many questions -- from the legal process, to where to seek medical treatment, to questions about medical bills, to the negotiation process, and more --...

I am very impressed by how much care and effort this group puts into helping the homeless. That’s not something you see enough, especially in this time of increasing need for community. It’s important to me to work with companies that align with my views, and I would definitely go to Phillips for any future personal injury lawyer needs.

Rich S.

Just would like to share my experience with Phillips And Associates. Ever since my accident in the first of the year, it was a life changing event for me and I finally decided to go with a personal injury attorney. I contacted Phillips And Associates and they made me feel like I was an actual person instead of a lot of other firms try to go with me like a number, Phillips And Associates has reached out to me in a kind, courteous and caring way they fully understand on the circumstances of the accident So far, Phillips And Associates has been absolutely wonderful. I truly recommend going with Phillips And Associates. Thanks (RuthAnn), your the Best!!! And Thank you...

Even if you have lots of evidence on your side, suing a pharmaceutical corporation over injuries you sustained from one of their products can be virtually impossible to accomplish alone. These companies dedicate millions of dollars to retaining defense attorneys and contesting lawsuits along these lines, and overcoming that opposition may require you to work with other people injured in the same way.

Put simply, representation from a Flagstaff dangerous drugs lawyer will almost certainly be essential to getting the compensation you need for the harm you did not deserve to experience.
